What Has NATO Accomplished?This six-point sun'e)' measures the path the Organiu.tion has tuv·

tied since its inception:

• The Alli;lnce has fulfilled its primary objel;:til'c: pcace has beenpreserved in Europe and on the North American contintnt, ;lnd the6Ccurity of the membet statts has been assured.

• Soviet expansion westward has been halted. Not one ~quare inchof territory in Europc has fallen under Soviet domination since theiignature of the Treat}'.

• The Tuat)' has been instrumental in setting up a unified defense,y~tem, which lias thus far provided effecti\'e prorction to the membersof the Alliance.

• Despite the butden imposed by their militarr obligations, the COun­tries of the Alliance h3ve increased their economit: prosperity and raisedth~ir st~ndard of living.

• The member countries hne developed a sptem of remarkablyc1~ and effective politi,;al cooperation in connection ""ith problems.rising out of their relations with the Soviet bloc.

-. They have laid the foundations of increased cooperHion In theeconomic, 5'ienti£ic and technical fields.

N-A-T-O

.The North Arbnric Tre~tr Orginiz:nion (NATO), cornerstone of

U.S. mi!'tary and foreign polie)' toward Europe, wiU celcbnte its 10thanniversary tomorrow, April 4, with the North Atlanrit Council meet·ing in Washington to commemorate the day.

The Council is compost'd of foreign ministers of the 15 NATOcountries-ehuter members Canada, Belgium, Denmark. Funce, Ire­bnd, Italy. Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norw:ay Portugal, the Unit­ed Kingdom and the United SC,l.IeS, with Gree" and Turkc)· joining thealli,loce in 19S2 and West German)', in 19H-and is the supreme 1\1­

thoriry of the alliance.Formed in 1949, ag1inst a background of increasing world-wide

Communist aggression, the crc:.trion of NATO did not violate an)' ofthe principles of the United Nnions nor did it require that a membernation sacrifice an)' of its narional sovereignty.

Primarily a military alliance, in real purpo!iC is pea,e, nOt war. Themembers have pledged that each will regard an armed attack upon anyone of them a~ an armed attack upon all.

The military task for,e of NATO is to defend a line which runshalfway across the ""orld, from the Aleutians to the Middle East. InEurope, the line strt"tches for 1,000 miles from tlie northfrn tip ofNorway to the eastern edge of Turkey.

To date, all commanders-in-chief of the Organization have beenU.S. generals. The first was Gen. Dwight D. EiSt'nhower, follo~'fd, byGen. Malthew Ridgwa)', Gfn. Alfrl.'d GruClllher and Gen. bum Nor­iud, prC$Cnt commander.

Headquarters of NATO are at Paris and occupanc), of the perma·nfnt buildings is expected during 1919.

The Military Committee is the senior military authority in NATOand reports directly to the Council, l;:omposed of the Chiffs-of-St.affof the member countries. The Military Committee has an uecutlvebody and a working agency called the "Standing Grou~" co~prising

representatives of the military chids of Francf, the Umtfd Kmgdomand the Uniled States.

It is at thl."SC higher levels that various national policies .ue har­monized so as to produce a NATO policy al;:cepnble to all members.Th~ policies art" then handed down to the major NATO commands,all of equal status. The four commands are the European Command,the Atlantic Ocean Command, the Channel Committee and ChannelCommand and the Can;lda-U.S. Regional Planning Group.
